I remember when the Paras were lower kits that were fitted to slides, not full finished pistols.
For the P14.45, does anyone know what other makes of slides will fit on those lower frames?
Thanks,

Any standard 5” slide should work.  Could be some minor fitting, but when my Para slide broke a new SA slide fit right up.

I think the LDA pistols are slide specific.

I have a Para frame kit from the early 90's fitted with a Caspian .40 slide, Caspian Hybrid .40 slide, and a Colt .45 slide.

What slide will work with a P-12, I know it is the size of colts officer model but they seem to not be series 80. Both Sarco and Gunparts corp are out of p-12 slides.

@1jtp

I believe any 3.5" slide would work. If it's a series 70 slide you would have to remove the lever in the frame and replace it with a spacer. Probably available at brownells or something. The hard part may be finding a barrel that works with the slide and the frame. The frame is cut for a para feed ramp.
